Ketogenic Recipes for Medical Therapies

Danielle–World Travelling Keto Hero!

No matter where in the world our Keto Hero Danielle is — from Beijing, China to Washington, D.C. — she always travels with one key ingredient: a great attitude. In 2013, her first year on Keto, Danielle moved to Beijing, travelled to her uncle’s wedding on a tropical island, and started a new school. She did it all with grace and positivity, making her family glow with pride every step of the way. Now, in January 2014, what we call “The Plan” has made a tremendous difference for our eight-year old Danielle!

Even before we started “The Plan,” Danielle was positive and helpful, telling her mother not to worry about spending a long time in the supermarket researching food because she knew her parents were doing the diet to help her. Now that we’re on “The Plan,” Danielle helps Mom devise delicious meals like three topping waffles with chocolate syrup. If Mom is flustered about what to make for dinner, Danielle might say, “Whatever is easiest for you, Mommy.”

Our family would like to extend our most sincere gratitude to our Keto Team in Boston: “You’re the Best!” To Ketocook and other Mom and Dad authors of ketogenic diet related books and websites: Thank you for taking the time to share your wisdom with other parents.

Keto Hero is a place where kids can be encouraged and caregivers can see how resilient keto kids are while being treated with the ketogenic diet. Please send in pictures of your keto hero and tell us why you are proud of them! E-mail to: ketocookmail@gmail.com

In 2007 my life was was changed forever when my daughter, Charlotte received a definitive diagnosis of Dravet’s Syndrome and my infant son, JT, was diagnosed with Hirschsprung’s Disease within the same week. In 2010, Charlotte began treatment with the ketogenic diet and experienced her first seizure free day in over 5 years. Enduring these trials has inspired and humbled me tremendously. I am compelled to reach out to as many families as possible, helping them understand how to incorporate ketogenic cooking into their everyday lives. I am the author of “The Keto Cookbook” and "The Modified Keto Cookbook" as well as the primary ketogenic recipe developer at The Charlie Foundation for Ketogenic Therapies. I am also proud to be a consultant for Cambrooke Therapeutics developing recipes for their Keto Vie Cafe product line. In the years since I began this journey, I have heard from many families whose lives have been saved by the ketogenic diet. I created KetoCook as a resource for “parents helping parents” find ideas and inspiration for ketogenic meals. Happy keto cooking!

Danielle,
What a great photo of you and Art! You look fabulous. I know you’ve been a hero from the very start of your diet- always being cheerful and accepting of your new challenge and working alongside with Mom to create your meals. Mom is also a hero for being so diligent with her research and her precision at making fun meals. Dad probably can take some credit too 🙂
You are an inspiration to everyone who face challenges in their life. Keep smiling!
We miss you here in DC!
Diane and John

That’s the way to do it, Danielle! You sound like an amazing girl. I am the mother of Mya, a fellow Keto Hero, who will be done with the diet in 75 short days! It sounds like you have the spirit and drive to reach your goal, too! Keep it up!! 🙂
